Deepal S7: SUV Beats Sedan (Sometimes)

[@rossinrayong632]

I saw this car at the mall in Thailand yesterday. It's beautiful. Stopped me in my tracks.

[@Newtons_Ghost]

Same thing happened to me today at Seacon. Suddenly I was inside the vehicle with brochure in my hand 😂

[@Harrythehun]

Deepal sounds like a village close to Bhopal in India.

[@gadgetgasspoll2923]

Deepal Chopra

[@ciybersal9833]

They should sell it in India..many Deepals will buy it.

This car is really good looking. The design is modern, very wel balanced while still appealing to many. The lights on the front look cool, the whole design makes me think a bit of the Hiphi X, which is a compliment. Unlike some other Chinese modern designs, the design of this one could work well in Europe.
I don't expect Deepal to go to Europe anytime soon though.I think it is important to focus on more affordable evs rather than the expensive ones we already have. Here in Europe, it is very hard to buy any EV under 30000 euros, which still is a lot of money for the average customer. You say that this Deepal S7 will be priced somewhere from $21000. Recently, the Hiphi Z is announced to come here to The Netherlands (yay, cannot wait to see one). It was announced to be 600000 RMB (about 75000 euros) in China, the predicted price here in NL will be more than 100000 euros. That is more expensive than a Tesla, and it is about 30% more than the Chinese price. If this Deepal S7 would be on sale in NL, it would maybe priced similar to the MG 4, which is available from 31000 euros. Then, it could be successful. Time will tell.

[@tren133]

Presumably you will get the Xpeng G6 in the Netherlands soon, which should be a very competitive electric SUV.

[@k0walsk]

I would have been more curious how it compare to rivaling SUVs rather than its sedan sibling. Handsome car, nice job by the guys in Turin.

[@Indoboy88]

Now i want this car

[@CarsonCheung]

Another good looking car from Changan! The design is really clean and premium.

[@stanbimi]

Another good looking EV. The number of EV brands in China is dizzying. The name means Deep-Blue, a term often seen in military articles to describe the class of warships designed to sail in the deep water zone of the Pacific.

[@chinese217]

His Chinese name also means this.

[@miltongawet8747]

Compared to other Chinese car designs this is the best I've ever seen good job

[@stevenbarrett7648]

Yet another car we will not see in the US or the UK….but nice !

[@ciybersal9833]

Changan has stated they will enter Europe in 2024. Deepal and Avatr are likely brands...

[@Brick-Life]

Good to see improvement

[@segam9077]

Look similar to Lotus Eletre ,but for that price I would happily buy one .but Chinese cars only have LHD , they should offer both options

[@CHINA-010]

我也准备买它，之前想买宋的，但是我喜欢无边框门

[@knowledgepatchouli773]

比宋轴距大很多，要拿样子肯定这个好看些，宋改款真的难看了

[@Vrp911]

How are you going to start the engine ?

[@ahmedbinabdulazizalsharif7356]

How many ground clearance??

[@peacemaker7380]

In which city/region was is filmed?

[@thefrog6065]

Any plans to review empow R?

[@mandakhorgil]

Any review on Landian E5?

[@harrypothead4575]

Deepal coming to Nepal 🇳🇵 or not? Cause Changan is available so maybe this will be too.

[@rajpootrj5647]

Don't know about Nepal but coming to Pakistan

[@malagebide]

车轮哥，你好像年轻时的特朗普啊，哈哈哈哈

[@petersimms4982]

Sweet and the cars not bad either 😊

[@roblah9597]

it would be interesting to see that AR HUD in action..
i wonder why other, more known brands like BYD, MG and VOLVO / ZEEKR don't include it (in promotions)..?
it seems an excellent feature that VW has pushed it into middle class - why not others?

[@Wheelsboy]

Unfortunately, our time with the S7 was pretty limited, so we didn't have a chance to get any footage. The system is largely similar to the one used by VW.

[@dingxiong8604]

Zeekr has a hub

[@CHASA]

Any crash tests done on the car ?

[@anaskhwelhe9798]

I love it

[@dennistinga24]

My current vehicle has zero charging ports

[@sumansth2034]

Why don't you review ling pao C11. This is the cheapest SUV with 280Km extended range...on paper it's the ultimate bargain looking forward to C11 review

[@Scarbir]

This car just looks good.

[@JingZhang-mp5ng]

Also selling good.much better that vs iD3 ID4

[@zodiacfml]

Deepal sounds more Indian to me.😏 Anyway, nice car again from China. I wonder why they have to bother with a hybrid though which just makes design more complicated; cripples the pure EV version that has no dual motor or high performance variant. A hybrid with a 1.5L engine is a great idea on the Li Auto L9.

[@Wheelsboy]

The answer is pretty obvious: range. That car has a claimed 200 km EV range, which can easily get most people through their commute and errands for at least a day or two. But when you need to go farther, the generator is there to make sure you can. Ultimately, EREV and PHEV cars suit way more lifestyles, and I don't think they get the attention they should simply because they're not as sexy and new as pure EVs.
As for a performance version, I do think it would help with their branding a bit, but I don't think it's actually necessary to accomplish what they want. A vast, vast majority of buyers don't need or want that much power, and will just choose the less powerful, cheaper option. The single rear motor cars are plenty fast enough for your average driver.

[@zodiacfml]

​@@Wheelsboy I guess you have a point on greatly extending range and they likely want to differentiate slightly from the pure EV Model Y.

[@marklola12]

Love the green exterior and orange interior but alas like 99% of EV cars...too expensive for me

[@Jerry-travel]

👍

[@St_JohnYam_Steve]

No mechanical door release from inside.

[@80y3r9]

Insurance for dual motor face melters is too much and realistically i dont use it so just wish it wasnt there so could pay less for insurance as they say its a performance car and..it isnt just oddly fast to 60

[@MustafaBinYousaf]

looks like a lambo urus

[@JingZhang-mp5ng]

深蓝只有两款车型，是EV销量第九和第十一，长安汽车的独立品牌

[@vorlon81]

Are they trying to Sell this in India?😂
No Fanny Pack Again 😫

[@Wheelsboy]

No idea about sales in other countries, and the fanny pack has essentially been replaced by the Hawaiian shirts at this point haha

[@petrimuinonen3462]

I don't care what it is called, if that car would be sold in Europe with same prices I'd buy one, and I'm guessing so would tens or hundreds of thousands after me

[@JJ-gl3qr]

Why is the cats so good and sooooo cheap in China

[@philipc239]

👍👍😀

[@tommyjakobsen5504]

Why do i see Volvo EX30. in that instrument, and very same size car. lets gess 0-100 is 3.6sec.

[@Wheelsboy]

As much as I love a fast car, that would make this car way more expensive and frankly isn't even remotely necessary for a mid-size SUV.

[@haoruchen4216]

not a tesla killer but a avatar killer ha ha

[@Wheelsboy]

You're way off on that one, at least in my opinion. This car is about half as much as an Avatr, so I don't see how they would compete.

[@rishab9082]

Deepal = Lotus + Urus

[@nenadZF]

Unfortunately, this is how new Mazda CX 5 successor will look like.

[@americannumber2]

Chinese car market right now looks like the states in the 70s

[@Wheelsboy]

I'm gonna need you to explain that simile to me haha

[@sebastian5903]

Chinese cars are not bad but the branding is horrible. The names sound eather crazy or cheap. And the model number is usually a letter and a number

[@etbadaboum]

Finally a front end that doesn't align with the homogeneous fascia of other Chinese premium car makers. Otherwise it looks good for this price point!

[@aphidian]

They would rather place a LCD screen at the passenger visor (as an option), but not in front of the driver. It's a sin. It's anti-user. It's like a disease spread by Tesla.
Some claim the HUD replaces traditional instrument cluster, but that's a lie. The HUD does not provide nearly enough information compared to a traditional full size instrument cluster, and it is harder to read under sunlight. Some owners are already complaining it's difficult to browse information like tire pressure, power consumption etc. because those were cramped at the corner of the center screen and can't be displayed all at once.

I can't keep up with these Chinese cars.

[@davidcohen637]

Urus for the poor lol

[@paulholterhaus7084]

Thought it was an EV.......Than found I was wasting My time reading about an ICE car.........Paul

[@reginald7214]

It is an ev or erev. Two different models you can choose.

[@Wheelsboy]

As stated by another user, this car comes in both EREV and EV variants. Also, the attitude of completely dismissing anything that isn't pure EV seems silly to me, but please keep commenting, it only makes UA-cam more likely to recommend my video to more people!

[@ciybersal9833]

Here in Asia and billions want hybrid. I can tell you even after 2030s you would be able to sell thousands of hybrids here, the market is just taking offf.

[@tharinducrg]

Indian name on a Chinese car 🤦‍♂️

[@gadgetgasspoll2923]

Namaste 😊

[@kshitizgautam5412]

Deepal is Nepali name not Indian !!

this car looks ugly somehow
